The Laosv4 series and
Lasv4 storage optimized VMs, based on the 4th Gen AMD EPYC™ processor (Genoa),
and the Lsv4-series VMs, based on the 5th Gen Intel® Xeon® processor (Emerald
Rapids), are now generally available.
Laosv4 VMs have sizes
ranging from 2-32 vCPU, with 8GB of memory and 720GB of
local NVMe disk capacity per vCPU. Lsv4 and Lasv4 VMs have
sizes ranging from 2-96 vCPU, with 8GB of memory and 240GB of
local NVMe disk capacity per vCPU, with the largest sizes offering up
to 23TB of local storage capacity. The Lsv4 and Lasv4 VMs introduce
new 2, 4, and 96 vCPU sizes which give you more configuration options to
right-size your storage optimized VMs to your workload.
All three of these
VM series are powered by Azure Boost and Azure Boost SSDs,
enable NVMe local SSD disk encryption by default, and come with
an NVMe remote storage interface with support for premium storage caching,
significantly improving remote storage performance.
All L-series v4 VMs
are perfect for distributed, scale-out workloads that require high
amounts of local storage capacity per vCPU and the ability to
move that data quickly over the network or to an Azure remote storage backend.
Workloads like storage caching layers, Elasticsearch, distributed file
systems, big data analytics, relational & NoSQL databases, and data
warehouses all benefit from the capabilities
of the L-series v4 VMs.
